PIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. The Tories have been greatly benefiting the cause of reform, by repeatedly insulting the people with de clarations at their feeds, in different places, that a re action, chiefly among the working classes, had taken place in their favour. In the journals devoted to the support of Toryism, the utmost contempt used to be manifested for the working-classes, and a favourite phrase of our Evening Contemporary, the Standard, adopted from it by Fraser's Ma , azine, " the beer washed tables," at which they obtained' their political intelligence, conveys a measure of the distaste of the Tories for whatever was connected with the classes in question. It is a great victory on the part of the people that the Tories have been forced to mend their manners. To show an anxiety to stand well with the working classes is an homage to their power and importance. The leading article of Black wood's Magazine for October, which we have more than once noticed, indulges, indeed, in the grossest abuse of the Whigs for their condescension to wards the people ; but Blackwood will be taught to dissemble respect, whether he feel it or not. As to re-action in favour of the Tories, the very idea is absurd. The people'perfectly well understand the mo tives of their old enemies. They understand perfectly well why the Tories affect to court them. The loaves and fishes can only now be obtained through the con sent of the people ; and to serve themselves, they are forced to exert themselves to deceive those whom they used to treat with contempt. It has often been ob served, that men never resort to fraud till they find themselves unable to gain their ends by force. The Turk effects his object by the bastinado, the stake, and the bow-string. The Tories of England are obliged to coax those whom they wish to plunder by feeds. As Blackwood says, they have been driven from one stronghold to another, till now they are without defensive works ; and it is true, as he says, that the waves of liberalism, after every ebb, have flowed with more irresistible force, and driven the Tories farther from their original position. We cannot give a better proof of the groundlessness of the claims of the Tories to popu lar re-action in their favour, than the dinner at Wor cester on Monday last, of which we :this day give a report. There was a Conservative feed in that city, at which the speakers boasted of the re-action among the operative classes in their favour. Their triumph has been of short duration. The reform operatives, to the number of between 1,500 and 1,600, with Mr. Arrowsmith, an operative, in the chair, by far the largest party that ever assembled in Worcester, gave the lie to the boasts of the Tories. It was stated by the Chairman that applications had been made for up wards of two thousand tickets, but that it had been ne cessary to refuse five or six hundred of the applicants. The boasting of the Tories has thus had the effect of stimulating the spirited Reformers of Worcester to affOrd a proof how little they merited the calumny of their opponents. The Tories will soon find, to their mortification, that the example set at Worcester will he extensively followed throughout the kingdom. The people have too much esteem for themselves to allow the Tories to represent them as ready to abandon their principles for a mess of pottage, and to lend their hands to forge the chains with which their old enemies would wish to manacle them. The inconsistencies of the Tory organs are often exceedingly amusing. With an effrontery seldom equalled, the Times tells us yester day that— .' When Lord Melbourne confessed in the House of Commons, with a mixture of sulk and humiliation, that the Peerage —the untitled A ristocracy —the Gentry—the learned professions—the Universities—the banking- interest —and the upper class of the commercial interest, were his political enemies ; when Lord Brougham stated broadly that almost every man in the kingdom having 300/. a-year to live upon, was a Conservative, each of these Noble Lords admitted in fact, that so far as the property, the education, the intelligence, the independence, and whatever constitutes the mind of the nation went, it was not represented by the policy or character of its rulers." We may here observe, by the bye, that Lord Mel bourne never allowed that the intelligence and the pro• party of the country were against him, for it was only by the property and the intelligence of the country that lie could hope to stand his ground against the enemies of both. But this misrepresentation has been already sufficiently refuted. The Times proceeds then to inform us that " Conservative tradesmen's' asso ciations, Conservative operatives' associations, have been organised in various parts of England, and have cconmenced a series of vigorous and decisive proceedings in cordial alliance with the Conserva tive aristocracy of their respective neilibourhocls, whom they alternately support and Lan upon, and with whom they maintain an encouraging intercourse of festive meetings and political discussion." The Tories, according to the Times, had always " the property, the education, the intelligence, the inde pendence, and whatever constitutes the mind of the nation ;" they have, too, the poor, deficient tenantry at-will of the Tory squirearchy—for the Times tells us that " the agricultural population is all safe ;" and now they have " the urban population itself, through whose eager and unanimous assistance the cause of Conservatism was to have been effectually crushed." The Tories having thus all—both rich and poor— what have the Reformers ? Out of what holes did the 1,600 reform operatives of Worcester creep ? To what non-descript class of beings did the great ga thering of West Somerset belong Who were the men of Surrey who met the other day in such num bers ? Did Sir John Campbell address himself to Conservatives at the Waterloo Hotel, or at Cupar ? Who were they who gave a dinner to Earl Minto at Hawick, a place in the midst of the Duke of Buc cleugh's wide domains ? Did Mr. Fox Maule show any reluctance to meet his Perthshire consti tuents ? Can the Tories really believe that there are any persons in England so grossly stupid as to be the - dupes of this foolish vapouring of their organs ? The Reformers have their differences. At Worcester, for instance, Mr. Robinson was not supported because all his votes gave satisfaction to his constituents, or because they shared all his opinions. On the contrary, at the Town Council dinner he was not so favourably received, on account of some of his votes and opinions, as he had been heretofore, but met with a few ugly interruptions. When we consider that Mr. Robinson's views are not always indicative of absolute wisdom, we can make allowance for the dissatifaction he encoun tered. But the different grades of Reformers became generally convinced of the expediency of concurring in the support of the Hon. Member, on whom the pre vious manifestation of feeling will not be lost ; and he was therefore favourably received on Monday last. In other places Reformers have their differences ; but the example of Newcastle has not been lost on them. The Tories will find that, whenever, trusting to these family quarrels, they put out their hands to grasp at power, the Refor mers w ill s h ow that they have both intelligence and spirit sufficient to baffle them. Let them consult their agents at the Registration Courts, and they will learn from them how little reason they have to plume themselves en any desertion of Refor mers to their ranks. The people laugh at their feeds, and despise those who are foolish enough to suppose the people are to be gulled by such threadbare de vices. We give them Worcester to digest.---Morning Chronicle. We yesterday adverted to a report of a Reform Din ner at Worcester on Monday, which up to the hour of going to press we had expected to give in yesterday' s publication ; but owing to an accidental occurrence the account did not reach us in time. We now present our readers with a full report of the proceedings to which we attach the .greater importance from the cir cumstance of the dinner being entirely got up by the Operatives, for the purpose of putting to shame the Tory fiction of a reaction amongst that class of the community. The whole proceeding, as will be seen by the report, was of the most gratifying character. A company of 1,500 Operatives, dined together, and 500 more applied for tickets, but it was found impossible to accommodate a larger number. An Operative presided in the chair, and gave eloquent expression to senti ments and feelings that showed a mind imbued with the truest spirit of Reform, all of which were cordially responded to by the company. The notion of reaction was treated with perfect ridicule. Mr. Robinson, the consistent Reform Member of the city, gave a full ac count of his stewardship, which was received with great approbation. Colonel Davis, the late Reform Member, was also well received, and was assured that on the next election the triumph over the Tories would be complete, and he should be reinstated in the post of honour. The three Liberal County Members were also highly applauded. A considerable number of in fluential gentlemen, both of the county and city, at tended the dinner, to express their hearty concurrence in the opinions and feelings of the Operatives on the great question of carrying out the objects of the Reform Act.—Morning Advertiser. It was with some feeling of ankiety that we made some observations yesterday in reference to the case of the forged power of attorney, which the Recorder of London was to report to the King the same evening. We now allude to the same case with a degree of satis faction which the contents of the Recorder's report will explain. We have now to add to the many in stances of Royal clemency which have distinguished the reign of our paternal Sovereign, and given a pure and imperishable lustre to the crown of William IV., the merciful mitigation of the sentence of a criminal, who, under the Lansdowne exception to the reformed law of forgery, was sentenced to die on the scoffold. It is now impossible that there can ever be another execution for forgery—and therefore the capital ex ceptions of the Forgery Act should be repealed. Pro perty derives small protection from impracticable laws. In the year 1786, the Grand Duke of Tuscany, who reformed the criminal code, and abolished the penalty of death in his dominions, thus expressed himself in reference to the result of that alteration of the laws : " With the utmost satisfaction to our paternal feelings we have at length perceived that the mitigation of punishment, joined to a most scrupulous attention to prevent crimes, and also a great despatch in the trials , together with a certainty of punishment to real delin quents, has, instead of increasing the number of crimes, considerably diminished that of smaller ones, and ren dered those of an atrocious nature very rare." The authentic records of crime in this country prove that the clemency of William IV. does not work less bene ficially than that of the Tuscan Sovereign for the inte rests of society.—Morning Herald. Our columns are again enriched with the reports of festive meetings of Conservatives, assembled to proclaim their sentiments to the world, to inculcate the political principles which they deem essential to the welfare and salvation of their country, and, surrounded by the appro priate circumstances of social enjoyment, to interchange with each other those expressions of delight and exul tation which are natural to honest men engaged in a good cause, and witnessing its irresistible and trium phant progress. The splendid Conservative manifes tations which we this day record will, no doubt, as other similar occurrences have done before, compel the Whig-Radical organs of the Melbourne-O'Connell Government to disguise their alarm, their envy, and their malice under the thin disguise of a sneer. These Conservative dinners are cruel affairs after all. It is downright barbarity to compel men in the me lancholy situation of our Ministerial Contem poraries to assume, in the very sadness of their hearts, the light airs of gaiety and humour, to mimic the tones of mirth while their spirits are sinking, to " grill horribly a ghastly smile" in the painful and fruitless endeavour to conceal their anguish and despair. We sincerely hope, nevertheless, that the Conservatives in every part of the country will gratify themselves, as well as all their loyal and constitutional fellow-country men who hear or read of their proceedings, by a social meeting, such as those in Essex and Yorkshire. The Conservatives have a right to rejoice in the position and prospects of their glorious cause ; and this right is certainly not impaired by the fact, however clearly es tablished, that their festive celebrations are a source of mortification and annoyance to the friends and sup porters of a destructive Administration. This cir cumstance might fairly be referred to in vindication of sorb meetings, if vindication were required. It is a tolerably conclusive proof that we are doing what is wise and good when our proceedings excite the manifest displeasure and alarm of the eeeemy. But no Conservative meeting has vet been held in any part of the kingdom the proceedings of which did not carry with them a nobler and more exalted yin • dication than this. We invite our readers to peruse the vigorous, manly, and sensible address delivered by Sir John Beckett to his constituents at the Leeds dinner—we invite them to peruse the speeches of the several Conservative Members of the House of Com mons who met their constituents at Maldon—and then to pronounce whether such assemblages be not in the highest degree useful and profitable to the good cause —whether they be not eminently calculated to display and to increase the predominance of sound constitu tionalprieciples—whether they do not afford advanta , • - ous opportunities to strengthen the convictions, to fan the zeal, to stimulate the exertions, and to cement the union of Conservatives—whether they have not a direct tendency to discredit, to discourage, and to en feeble the enemies and assailants of those invaluable national institutions which the Conservative party are determined to rescue from threatened destruction. Of the speech of Sir John Beckett it is impossible to speak in terms of excessive eulogy. It is a plain, clear, and eloquent exposition of the character and objects of the Conservative party, a full and com prehensive vindication of the conduct which its leaders have consistently pursued, a complete demonstration of the importance of continued and augmented exertions on the part of its members. It would far exceed our limits to do justice here to the numerous passages of this excellent address, which attest at once the power of the speaker and the merit of his cause ; for to do this adequately we must be under the necessity of transcribing the whole oration. The justification of the Conservatives, who identify Mr. O'Connell with the Melbourne Government, is perhaps that part of the Right Hon. Gentleman's speech will make the deepest and most general impression. The " Lion and Lamb Government" will, we foresee, become a familiar household phrase, unless Conservatives, un willing to disparage an animal which, although a beast of prey, possesses some noble qualities, should deem " the wolf and lamb" a fitter emblem of the O'Con nell-Melbourne confederacy.—Morning Post. BURKE'S HISTORY OE THE LANDED GENTRY. —We are glad to observe, by the announcement of the 13th part, which is to appear with the Magazines on the Ist of November, that this important and truly national work draws towards its completion. This 13th part, we are in formed, will contain, among numerous other eminent fami lies, accounts of the following : Hulton of Hulton Long of Rowde Ashton and, Peeshaw Trenchard of Stanton Phillips of Garrendon Park Taylor of Clifton Fulford of Fulford Park Creyke of Marton Gordon of Pitlurg Barneby of Brockhampton Northey Hopkins of Oving House Bodenham of Rotherwas Peploe of Garnston Kemey4 Tinte of Halsewell Heber of Hodnet Hopton of Canon Frome Leslie of Glaslough Leslie of Ballybay and Leslie Hous• Heneage of Hainton Entwisle of Foxholes Greaves of Irlam Hall Hankey of Fetcham Park Phillips of Longworth Willyames of Carnanton Lloyd of Croghan Lucas of Castle Shane Fortescue of Ravensdale Park Bainbridge of Lockington Canyon of Tregrehan Johnes of Dolecothy Estcourt of Estcourt St. Aubyn of Alfoxton Mulloy of Oak Port Nicolas of Eastlooe Calley of Burdeross Park The Knight of Glyn ._ Bullock of Shepden Hall Ilbert of Bowringsleigh Bernard of Palace Anne Spens of Lathallan Mainwaring of Oteley Park Whitgreave o f Mosley Hall Ashby of Quenby Fane of Wormsley Monck of Coley Park Ward of Salhouse, &c. Last week, a young child, left alone in a room on the third story, in the Rue du Faubourg St. Martin, Paris, climbed up to the window, fell upon the pavement, and was killed. On the same day an optician, in the same street, went out, and on his return found his son, four years old, rolling on the ground in the most frightful agonies. The poor child had reached a phial of sulphuric acid, and drunk its contents. He died very shortly after. THE DIARY OF A DESENNUYEE.—The tirades launched against this work, on account of the freedom of its opinions on Fashionable Society, appear to have had the effect which was predicted. They have increased the celebrity of one of the cleverest books that has been produced for a long period, and, accordingly, a second edition is just pub lished, revised by the author, with additions. This is a book which may be read after Trollope with highly benefi cial effect. A buxom widow at Paris, aged 52, wished to assume again the delightful chains of matrimony, but her papa and mama conceiving that she had not yet reached the years of discretion, opposed the union. The Civil Tribunal was re sorted to, and pronounced that the would-be bride was old enough to choose for herself. An appeal was made by the parents to the Royal Court, which, a few days since, con firmed the judgment of the Tribunal. THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 27, 1836. REGISTRATION OF VOTERS. suffer. Court, said the notices of objections were not posted on the church doors within the time prescribed by the Act. Mr. MYLNE—How was that ? How de you account for the omission ? You are probably aware that overseers sub ject themselves to heavy penalties in not strictly adhering to the terms of the Reform Act. The Overseer said he was aware of that ; at the same time he was bound to admit that the notices were regularly served upon bim in proper time. Mr. MYLNE—Then how do you account for the irregu larity ? Overseer—l gave the notices to Mr. Williams, the other overseer, and as he is present probably he can account for it. Mr. Williams—The fact is, Sir, that when I received the notices, I put them into a drawer, and being suddenly called out of town, I forgot them. Mr. MYLNE—Under these circumstances I cannot go into the objections : they must be overruled. Mr. Rowcroft—Our notices were regularly served, and therefore if the Court refuses to entertain them from any neglect of the overseer, it places that officer in an awkward situation : he is liable to be sued for heavy penalties. Mr. Williams submitted whether or not notices of objec- tions ought not to be served on all the overseers of a pa rish. In some of the city parishes there were four over seers, and if one omitted the duty, the othQrs ought not to Mr. Rowcroft—You had better, Sir, at once pay a penalty of 1001., for I cannot tell which we shall proceed against— most assuredly it will be the best man.—(Laughter.) Mr. Williams—lf I am in office another year, I will un derstand the Act better. I decline your offer of paying 100/.—(Laughter.) After some further observations, Mr. MYLNE said he was clearly of opinion he had no authority to go into the objections, as it was admitted the provisions of the Act had not been complied with. Tho objected votes were there fore ordered to remain on the registry. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. JURISDICTION OF THE CENTRAL CRIMINAL ACT. On their Lordships taking their seats, Mr. ADOLPHUS applied to the Court to issue a habeas to the Sheriff of Middlesex, directing him to bring up the body of a person of th• name of Morgan, against whom the Grand Jury had found a true bill for perjury, on pur pose that the defendant might be put upon his trial. Mr. Justice GASELEE expressed his doubts as to whether the Judges of a Civil Court could issue a habeas out of their own Courts to bring up a person at present in custody, for the purpose of being tried on a criminal charge. Mr. CLARKSON thought that, under the 16th section of the Act appointing the Central Criminal Court, the Judges who attended the Court possessed the power. Mr. BODKIN, for the prosecution, opposed the application. Mr. Justice GASELEE was of opinion that neither the Judges of the Common Pleas or the Exchequer had the jurisdiction, as stated by Mr. Clarkson. Messrs. ADOLPHUS and CLARKSON observed that Mor gan was most anxious to get out of the charge of perjury. Mr. Justice GASELEE found the accused was arrested for the sum of 7001., and for the safe custody of the pri soner he was liable. This fact alone would induce him to suggest the postponement of the application. After some further conversation, it was agreed by the Counsel that the case should be moved, by a writ of cer tiorari, into the Court of King's Bench. The Court then proceeded to try prisoners, but none of the cases possessed features of novelty or interest. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. Mr. Lavine, the solicitor to Messrs. Foster and Co., the great shipowners, yesterday appeared upon the part of the firm to answer the complaint of Pedro Deloseggelas, a native of Manilla. Pedro Deloseggelas (as interpreted by R. Willis) was asked at Manilla to go on board the Jane Eliza, a South Sea whaler, bound for England. He consented, and em barked, but did not know the day, and he arrived in Lon don. There was an agreement between the captain of the vessel and the captain of the port that the complainant should be sent back to Manilla, there being no British Consul at that place, but the paper on which the agree ment was written was left there, and the contract was not performed. The complainant also said that the money to which he was entitled was paid by the agents of Messrs. Foster to a beer-shopman who occasionally gave him a few shillings, and at last in a few days brought him in debt to the amount of 121. 9s. 7d. for seven days' eating and drink ing, the latter having consisted principally of ginger beer. —( Laughter.) The complainant was wholly ignorant of the English language, and had the appearance of a person who was just dragged out of barbarism. Mr. Lavine stated that Messrs. Foster and Co. had, ac cording to the approved custom, always employed their agents to pay off the seamen who worked in their ships, and that the complainant had been dealt with in the usual way. Mr. Levy, of the house of Levy and Co., of Aldgate, had paid the complainant his wages on the Ist of June by a check, which was produced. The owner of the eating-house, No. 29, Ratcliffe-highway, who acted with the greatest humanity in not only feeding the poor foreigner for four months, but in prosecuting the charge of complaint in the most resolute way, stated that the poor ignorant creature had become the victim of a vaga bond who, in seven days, charged him 121.95. 7d., and that if the shipowners did not consent to assist him the unfor tunate man must perish. The LORD MAYOR said that the poor foreigner should not perish, at any rate. He did not mean, by any means, to cast any imputation upon Messrs. Foster and Co., but lie was obliged to say that poor foreigners were brought to this country, and frequently thrown upon the public, by those whom their labours helped greatly to enrich. He (the Lord Mayor) should certainly make application to the Government to alter the present regulations. Here the case ended. The poor foreigner went away with the benevolent person, who has, by supporting him, very much inconvenienced himself, according to the state ment made to the Lord Mayor. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. A fashionably-dressed person, who gave the assumed name of John Smith, was yesterday charged before Mr. DYER and Mr. CONANT, with having committed the fol lowing gross outrage : Mrs. Prescott, a married woman, living at No. 9, Char lotte -street, who said that she held a situation in the House of Lords, had called at the Duke of Sutherland's man sion in King-street to see some of the servants, in company with a young girl named Hannah Parkinson. About eleven o'clock she was taking leave of the porter at the door when the defendant and four other gentlemen came by, and, in passing, addressed some observation to her, which she did not notice. Having quitted the house she went towards the place where Hannah Parkinson was waiting for her, and, on reaching the spot, she saw that the girl i was sur rounded by the gentlemen, and exposed to gross indecency. She went to her assistance, upon which the defendant seized her, forced her against the railings, and conducted himself with scandalous indecency. She got away, but the defendant again seized her, and repeated the shameful at tack. She called out, if he was a gentleman he ought not to use a decent female in such a manner, and that if she could find a policeman she would give him in charge. The defendant replied by calling her a -- —, and threatened to knock her down. A policeman, however, who witnessed the transaction, came up, and complainant gave the person who had insulted her in charge. The complainant added, that she could refer to many persons who would speak to her respectability, and that she was the mother of four children. Policeman Plume, C 12, was standing opposite at the time the assault took place, and saw and heard the proceed ings of the gentlemen, and on being applied to he took the defendant into custody. Hannah Parkinson was waiting for Mrs. Prescott, when she was suddenly surrounded by four gentlemen, who seized her, threw her on the pavement, and behaved in a more in famous way to her than even to Mrs. Prescott. One of the persons who had taken the most active share in this outrage was then sitting in the office. Mr. DYER directed the person alluded to to take his station by the other defendant, for the purpose of answering the complaint. Charles Holies, 12, Dover-street, was a stranger to all parties. About eleven o'clock the overnight he was pass ing through St. James's-square, when he saw the youngest complainant, Hannah Parkinson, lying on the pavement, and four gentlemen about her, assaulting her very inde cently. Witness likewise saw Mrs. Prescott in the hands of another gentleman, who was acting indecently towards her. The females were crying out. Witness saw Mrs. Prescott get away, but was attacked a second time, and again indecently treated. Mr. DYER asked the first defendant what he had to say ; but on perceiving th a t h e wa s l au ghing at some thing which had passed between the other defendant and himself, said that he was bound to tell him that he did not know who he was nor care, but the present was certainly not a laughing matter. Inspector Deering said the name of Smith he had good reason to believe was not that defendant's real name. No inquiry, however, was made as to the truth of the statement, and Smith proceeded to say in defence, that he was going along King-street with some friends, and, mistak ing the females for women who wished to entice him to en ter their company, he certainly put his arm round the waist of one of them. Ho denied, however, having acted as de scribed ; but he certainly did apply some epithets to her, believing her to be a different sort of character. The second defendant, who gave his name William Carr (also believed to be fictitious), denied that he bad done as described by Hannah Parkinson. The girl in the most positive manner asserti:d that he (Carr) was the first who had laid holrof her, and who had acted with the utmost indecency. To disprove this Carr called a gentleman sitting in the office, who, on coming forward, was immediately recognised both by the girl and by Mrs. Prescott, as one of the indivi duals concerned in the outrage. Carr declared that he was not the man who touched the young woman. The gentleman who had laid hold of her was not in attendance. Mr. DYER said it was out of no delicacy to the defendants that the bench had come to the determination of treating the case in a summary way ; it was out of regard to the feelings of decent females, who would have to give similar evidence in a public Court, that such a course had been adopted. Nothing was so clear as that modest females were to be protected in the public streets from insult and vio lence ; and with respect to the insinuation that allurement had been used in the first instance, the whole tenour of the evidence went to disprove such a supposition. The defendants were then fined .5/. each. One of them pulled out a purse containing several banknotes, and paid the money. From the dress and appearance of the defendants it was clear they moved in a superior station. They have, how ever, escaped public notice for the present. MIDDLESEX. The Revising Barristers held their Court on Tuesday at Jack Straw's Castle, Hampstead, and went through the lists for Hampstead, Hornsey, and Willesden. Before entering on the lists appointed especially for the day, the Learned Gentlemen delivered judgments with re spect to the question of Trustees. Mr. KEEN 's decision was to the following effect :—Mr. Robert Finch Harris claims as trustee for a moiety of a house called the Angel and Crown Inn, in the parish of Staines, under the will of his late brother, by which the testator devised his real estate to the claimant and a Mr. Henry Nutts, and their heirs, in trust, to apply the rents and profits to the maintenance of the testator's children until the youngest child attained the age of 21, and then to divide the same equally among the children, as tenants in common ; the claimant was sole manager of the trust estate, and received the rents and profits for the benefit of his nephews. The prin cipal objection to the claim was that Harris was a trustee, and had a beneficial interest in the property in respect of which he claimed. There was a second objection, that, as the duties of the trustee would cease when the youngest child attained the age of twenty-one, the claimant took only a chattel, and not a freehold interest under the will ; and in support of that objection a case, Doe dem. Gort v. Leeds, in the Court of Exchequer, which is not reported, was cited, laying aside a class of cases in which the rule has been established that the purposes of a trust, and not the words of limitation used by the testator, shall be the measure of the estate to be taken by the trustee or exe cutor ; and, taking the fee to be vested in the claimant, this case raises the important question whether a trus tee—having no beneficial interest in the trust estate in respect of which he claims—is entitled to the county fran chise. The 23d sec. of the Reform Act, taken by itself, and considered without reference to any other part of the Act, appears to me to confer a clear right of voting upon trustees, provided they arc in possession or receipt of rents and profits of the trust estates. But even taken with the other enactments, the effect appears the same. * * I now come to the 26th section, which, it is contended, controuls and renders nugatory the previous enactment. By that section it is enacted, " that, notwithstanding any thing thereinbefore contained, no person shall be entitled to vote unless he be duly registered according to the provisions thereinbefore contained : and that no person shall be so re gistered in any year in respect of his estate and interest in any lands or tenements as freeholder, copyholder, customary tenant, or tenant in ancient demesne,un/ess he shall have been in the actual possession thereof, or in the receipts of the rents and profits thereof to his own use, for six calendar months next previous to the last day of .July." The claim ant's own use, which is here made a condition of registration, is to be restricted to possession by the beneficial owner, either by himself or by his tenant ; no trustee can be en entitled to vote. To speak of a trustee for his own use is a contradiction in terms—a solecism in legal language. A man may have a beneficial interest in part of the property . _ of which he it a trustee as to the rest for others ; but in so far as he has a beneficial interest his equitable estate merges in his legal estate, and he is, in respect of that interest, ab solute owner and not a trustee. Are these trustees, whose right to vote is so expressly declared by the 23d section of the Reform Act, excluded by the 26th section ? The words " notwithstanding anything hereinbeforo contained" are words of form rather than substance, and I think the Court would not be justified under the shelter of a phrase belong ing more to the conveyancer than to the lawgiver in ex punging a whole substantive clause of the Act, even if that clause were more irreconcileable with the provisions of the 26th section than I think it will be found to be. The real question is this—were the trustees within the contempla tion of the Legislature in the 26th section, or were they not ? If they were not, there was no intention to exclude them, and their rights, as declared by the 23d section, re mained unaffected : if they were, it is incumbent upon the Court whose duty it is to construe this Act of Parliament, to put such a construction upon it as may reconcile, if pos sible, the apparent inconsistency between the 23d and 26th sections ; and at all events, if that should not be entirely practicable, not to adopt a construction which shall reduce that part of the Act to an absurdity ; for such would be the effect of holding that the Legislature has annexed an im possible condition to the exercise of the right which it has expressly given to trustees. After a consideration of the effect of the words " to his own use" in the Reform Act, and in former statutes, I am of opinion that trustees have the right of voting under the 23d section, and that such right is not affected by the provisions of the 26th section. Where there is a plurality of trustees the value of the trust estate in respect of which the claim is made must be such as when divided by the number of trustees will give to such trustee a sufficient qualification in point of value to vote for the county. With regard to the number of trustees that may be admitted to vote for the same estate, that must de pend upon the number that can prove that they are in actual possession or receipt of the rents and profits. This excludes altogether the claims of merely passive or dormant trus tees, such as trustees to attend the inheritance, trustees to preserve contingent remainders, and other trustees of the I ike kind, who are constituted, not for the performance of active duties, but for mere technical purposes. Uniformity of decision, and in the present state of the laws as to appeals from the decisions of Revising Barristers in such a case as this, can only bo attained by the amending hand of the Le gislature ; and until thst amending hand shall be applied the construction which I have put upon this part of the Act seems to me to be that which is most consistent with the letter and with the spirit of the Reform Act. The result of this decision is that the claim of Mr. Harris is allowed. Mr. COVENTRY was of the same opinion. Mr. GREGORY said that the question upon which the Court had just given judgment was one of considerable im portance, and upon which a great difference of opinion existed in the profession. It was extremely desirable that it should be set at rest, and that the same rules should go vern each county. With that view he hoped the Court would allow the present eases to stand over, in order that lie might take advice as to the best means of raising the question before a higher tribunal. Mr. COPPOCK concurred, and expressed his readiness to join in the expense of getting the opinion of the Court of King's Bench upon the poiut, by mandamus, or otherwise. He, however, feared that the 56th section, which enacted that the decision of the Revising Barristers should be final, rendered such a course impracticable. The COURT acquiesced in the opinions expressed as to the propriety of a formal decision from a higher tribunal, but thought, with Mr. Coppock, that the 56th section pre cluded the possibility of the question being raised before the Court of King's Bench. It was ultimately arranged that the question should re main open until Mr. Gregory took Counsel's opinion as to the best means of raising the question before the highest legal tribunal. The following is a summary of the results :- 1 Objection by Overseers. Conservatives. Radicals. Parish. Total. Sustained. Total. Sustained. Total.

COVENTRY and KEENE yesterday opened their Court of Revision at the King's Head Inn, Enfield, for the correction of the lists of the parishes of Hadley, South Mimms, Edmonton, Tottenham, Friern, Barnett, and Enfield. (Before Mr. COVENTRY.) The list for the parish of Edmonton came under notice, and upon it an objection appeared, taken by the Conserva tives against the vote of Mr. D. W. Harvey, M.P., on the ground of change of residence. Mr. Harvey appeared in person to support his vote, and proved that he was still in possession of the same qualifi cation. The title deeds were laid by him upon the table. The Hon. Gentleman said that he felt the effect of the ob jection, and was only anxious that it should not go forth that he was rejected on the ground of disqualification in respect of property. Mr. COVENTRY held that the change of residence with out notice of claim, was fatal to the vote. He could make no distinction, inasmuch as the rule had been universally adopted (with one exception only) by all Revising Barris ters. The vote of Mr. Harvey must therefore be expunged. (Before Mr. KEENE.) The claims of the Shareholdders of the New River Com pany were opposed by Mr. Coppock, on behalf of the Re formers ; and supported by Mr. Gregory, on behalf of the Conservatives. After a lengthened argument, the judg ment of the Court was postponed. The labours of the day presented the following results : Overseers' objections... 44 Allowed ... 42 Reform objections 47 Allowed Tory objections ...... 19 Allowed CITY. ST. MARY COLEWICH. The vote of Mr. Horton, who claimed to be placed on the registry, in right of occupying premises in the parish, was objected to on the ground that he was not rated to the poor. The Overseer stated that the premises occupied by Mr. Horton were voted in the name of E manue l C o ll ege, Cam and the agents of th a t co ll ege pa i d the rates. Horton admitted such to b e th e case, b ut contended he ought not to be deprived of his elective franchise, as he had for two years claimed to have his name entered on the rate-books. The Overseer admitted this fact, and Mr. MYLNE held that a person claiming to be rated had done all required by the Act, and allowed the vote. ST. LEONARD. In this parish the Conservatives obje c t e d to two votes. The acting Overseer, i n answer to a question from the LAMBETH-STREET. Yesterday Mr. George Englehurst, who holds a respect able and lucrative situation in the London Docks, was brought before the Magistrates, by Shields, the officer, on a warrant, charging him with having violently assaulted his wife. _ _ The complainant, whose portly figure and blooming ap pearance formed a most striking contrast to the diminutive person and cadaverous aspect of her lord and master, stated that in consequence of the irritable temper and jea lous disposition of her husband she was obliged to live apart from him for the last seven or eight months. During the latter part of the time her husband visited her, and she was in hopes that matters would be so reconciled that they would live together again ; but on her calling at his house on Sunday night last, he beat her in a most violent man ner, and bruised her face in the state it then appeared. Mr. Engleheart, in reply to the charge, was obliged to demand a separation from his wife, in the first instance, in consequence of her getting very tipsy, coming home in that state at the most unseasonable hours of the night, and getting in at the windows, to the great scandal in the neighbourhood of herself as well as him. Besides, he had every proof previously of her being faithless to her marriage vow, and since then had detected her in her profligacy. Mrs. Engleheart—What he is stating now, Sir, is perfectly untrue. The fact is, that lie is a very jealous man, and would say anything to vilify me. Notwithstanding his as sertions, he has frequently called on me, and made arrange ments for my returning to live with him. MAGISTRATE—Is it true that you have been in the habit of going to see your wife ? If so, it is a contradiction of your assertions of her gross misconduct. Mr. Engleheart— Why, it's true enough that I have called to see her, but the last time I went to her lodgings, about a fortnight ago, I found her bed room-door closed, and hearing a noise inside I forced the door open, and there found my wife lying on the bed, and a man in the room, so that I had no doubt of her guilt. Mrs. Engleheart (to the Magistrates)—lt's no such thing your Worship, it's all the effect of his jealous fancy. Mr. Engleheart—Fancy, indeed ! you know it was perfect reality. After much crimination, pro and con, the warrant was dismissed, on the defendant promising to allow his wife a weekly stipend, and not to molest her for the future. A young Scotchman, of gentlemanly address and appear ance, applied to the Magistrates for a warrant to search the house of a gentleman in the neighbourhood of the Commer cial-road, for some property which he said had been taken from him twelve months ago, and which he had reason to suspect was there. From what transpired, it appeared that the wife of the applicant had some time ago eloped from Scotland, and was at present living with the gentleman whose house he was so anxious to search, and that his principal object in applying for a search warrant was, that he might find some letters which had passed between his wife and her present para mour and protector. The same individual applied to the Magistrates at this office on Monday last, to know if the Magistrates would swear some witnesses in the neighbourhood to their deposi tions in a case of divorce instituted in Scotland, as to the adultery of one of the parties, with a view of their being for warded to Scotland in support of the suit. The MAGISTRATES did not object to swearing the wit nesses to their depositions, provided they were brought pro perly written and drawn up. DESTRUCTIVE FIRE. A terrific fire broke out last night in the very extensive workshops of Messrs. Williams, Stanbridge, and Co., pa tent japanned tea-tray and Venetian-blind manufacturers, in Lamb's-passage, which is in the centre between Chis well-street, Bunill-row, and Whitecross-street, and has communications with all three. The flames burst forth with prodigious fury, and cast a deep red glare over the at mosphere, that was visible all over London, and caused a great crowd to assemble, and the numbers of police unhap pily being deficient, the firemen with their engines had great difficulty in getting to the spot. The engine from French Horn-yard, Holborn, had its lamp broken off and lost in the crowd. The manufactory was of a peculiar description. It was an economic improvement on the papier nzackce tray, cotton wool being the staple used, which by pro cesses, all of which were performed on the premises, was converted into a solid substance, and moulded to the form required. A powerful steam-engine was on the premises and assisted in the operations. The fire is said to have commenced in the " tow-room," where the cotton wool underwent its first process of manufacture from the raw state. The workmen had left to get their tea, and none but the boys remainded on the pre mises. The heedlessness of these in larking is understood to have been the cause of the wool catching fire. The flames spread with astonishing rapidity, and in a very s hort space of time the whole range of buildings, which cove." about a quarter of an acre of ground, and are brick-walled and three stories high, ware one body of flames. The long breadth of factory windows were soon broken by the heat, and, the building forming two sides of a square, the wind rushed through it, fanning the flames, and causing them to burn and spread with amazing fury. About six o'clock the roofs of the various workshops began successively to fall in, when the flames mounted up high in the air. The alarm was early given, and the engine from Whitecross-street station soon was on the spot, folowed by the Jeffrey-square engine, the Farringdon-street engine, Mr. Braidwood, the superintendent, with the engines from the head-office, Wat ling-street, the French Horn-yard engine, and the Well close-square engine. In all 12 of the large engines of the fire establishment with upwards of 60 of the firemen were soon assembled on the spot, but, from the closeness of the approaches, several of the engines could not be brought into play, and the men were employed in various other ways under Mr. Braidwood's directions, in cutting off communi cations and checking the spread of the fire to the conti guous buildings. One part of Whitbread's brewery was close to the principal seat of the fire, and very great exer tions were made to prevent its spread in that direction. The two engines kept on the premises were got in readiness, and every precaution taken against the apprehended danger. A large number of auxiliaries were engaged by Mr. _Braid wood to keep the engines in full and incessant play: By eight o'clock the whole of the space within the exterior of the walls of the factory had been reduced to a heap of ruins, and although much fire remained within, it was evi dent the flames had exhausted their fury, and all danger with ordinary care had ceased of their further spread. Still they kept mounting up now and then, and the play of all the en gines on the burning ruins was indispensably necessary. The premises were before on fire about six months back but little damage was then done. By nine o'clock all danger had 'leased, and several of the engines were withdrawn, The fire at one time had caught the stacks of timber in the yard of Messrs. Cartwright and Co., whose premises lay on the Chiswell-street side of the factory. The property here was of vast extent, and insured in the Sun Fire Office for 12,0001. The utmost efforts were made to arrest the flames, and the hose of several engines were cerried up to the tops of stacks of timber in the yard, and on to the roofs of the adjacent houses, whence powerful streams of water were poured down, which completely kept the flames in check. The destroyed factory was insured in the North of England office for 3,5001., but this is understood to be very inadequate to the loss ; an application had been made by the firm a few weeks back to increase the insurance, and the morrow, at ten o'clock, was actually fixed for the sur veyor of the Company to go over the premises preparatory to the execution of the additional policy. The insurance was, on account of the great hazard, a special one. Be sides the patent manufacture of trays, &c., there was a very extensive manufacture of a peculiar kind of mill board, made of silk and cotton wool, and called pelter, carried on upon the premises. It was used for placing be tween the sheathing and coppering of ships' bottoms, for which purpose it was saturated with tar. The cotton wool was besides manufactured into many curious articles of do mestic use. By means of powerful presses it was converted into tea-pots, tea-cups and saucers, and vases, and these were glazed and painted ,and baked till they acquired an appearance difficult to distinguish from fine specimens of china. It was only by handling them and discovering their lightness that the cheat became apparent. Several small houses close by are severely scorched. Of the many fires that annually occur, particularly dur ing the winter quarter, a very large proportion arise from window curtains or bed furniture being set fire to throug V _ ~_........i ----- carelessness with lighted candles. A me re dry' vu would perhaps not operate so effectually as the ptbli,sing the following list of eleven fires, which h ave all ocscu within the last week, and all of them from w ant of due .cau tion in placing or carrying about lighted ca ndles :—A..t. ,Mr. ,ution rindJ. Smith's, 20, Lower Whitecross-street, Cripplegat e, he Lel furniture in the second floor back room was thu's set fire to, and the bed and furniture nearly destroyed. At Mrs. Strickland's, 11, Lower Cornwall-street, St. Georg in-the-East, a window curtain was in this manner set fie. to, and considerable damage done to the furniture aod decorations of the drawing-room. At Mr. Platt's, atto.r: ney, 39, Southampton-buildings, Holborn, a bed and furibl- ture on the second floor were much damaged. At Mr.. George Whitehead's, 6, Cross-lane, Newton-street, H ol born ,- by the wind blowing the window curtain to a candle heedlessly placed near, it caught fire, and some damage: and much alarm followed. At Messrs. Hamilton and. Sin clair's, tailors, Bolton-street, Piccadilly , a considerable da mage to the stock was thus caused. At M r. Estree's, 7, St. Andrew's-terrace, Waterloo-road, a qu antit y of bed linon was set fire to by a candle, and burnt. At Mrs. Canter's, 12, Gun-square, Houndsditch, a bed and furni ture on the second floor were by this means burnt. In Mr. Charles Key's apartments in the house of Alessrs, Breton and Freeman, 24, Titchborne-street, Marylebone, .a spark front a candle did considerable damage in the second pair bedroom. At Mr. Farrell's, rag-merchant, King...sx'r eet, Golden-square, some of the stock was set fire to and de stroyed. At Mr. Ramsay's, 6, Circus - street , New-road, Marylebone, a curtain was set fire to, by wh ich a child's bed was burnt. At Miss Loft's, 13 , St. G eor g e's-road, Southwark, by a curtain catching fire, a bed and furnitur e were destroyed, and some damage done to the b uildin g . it is impossible for housekeepers to be too strict in looking after lighted candles, or too frequent in their warnings Ito their inmates to be extremely careful.
